  Description     : a portable client library for working with and managing Amazon S3 buckets and keys.

Amazon::S3 provides a portable client interface to Amazon Simple Storage
System (S3).

This need for this module arose from some work that needed to work with S3
and would be distributed, installed and used on many various environments
where compiled dependencies may not be an option. Net::Amazon::S3 used
XML::LibXML tying it to that specific and often difficult to install
option. In order to remove this potential barrier to entry, this module
is forked and then modified to use XML::SAX via XML::Simple.

Amazon::S3 is intended to be a drop-in replacement for Net:Amazon::S3
that trades some performance in return for portability.

This is a requirement of RT 4.4 which I hope to have packaged in time
for stretch. I will look at packaging this in the next couple of weeks,
but if someone else in the Perl team is able to look at this sooner,
that'd be ideal.
